Hungary–Palestine relations (Arabic: علاقات المجر وفلسطين, Hungarian: Magyarország-Palesztina kapcsolatok) were formalized when Hungary recognized the State of Palestine as a sovereign state on 23 November 1988.[1] Palestine has an embassy in Budapest.
History[edit]
In 1975, the PLO opened an office in Budapest and gained diplomatic status in 1982. In 1988 after the recognition of indpendence it was raised to a full-fledged embassy. In 2011, the Palestinian President visited Hungary at the invitation of President Pál Schmitt.[2] Many Palestinian students study in Hungarian universities via scholarships (Stipendium hungaricum).[3]
